Hotel Kloster Holzen offers ten meeting rooms for seminars and workshops, spaces for company parties and customer events, and a full wedding set-up with ceremonies for up to 120 guests. The former Benedictine convent stands in Allmannshofen, in Bavarian Swabia between Augsburg and Donauwörth, and the hotel on site opened in 2011.
Seminars and company events
The largest meeting room is the Salzburger Saal, 141 m2 with parquet floor, stucco, a wall painting and chandeliers, equipped with a 90-inch TV screen. Raum Hildegard (110 m2) was the convent refectory and keeps its stucco ceiling. Raum Ringeisen (110 m2) has an 84-inch smartboard at no extra charge. The Gartensaal (105 m2) opens onto the south garden and a terrace for coffee breaks. Von Treuberg (46 m2) and Raum Hohenzollern (41 m2) suit smaller groups, and four rooms of 23 m2 each can be added for group work. The hotel arranges seating to your brief but does not publish seat counts per room, so ask for layouts when you send a request.
For company events the hotel names Christmas parties, anniversaries, summer parties and product presentations. The spaces include the vaulted restaurant (100 seats), the terrace (80 seats), the separate Jägerstüble (30 seats), the cloister garden for receptions and the old bowling alley.

History and setting
The Benedictine double convent of Neuwasser was founded in 1150 and later moved to Holzen. The present complex dates from the foundation stone laid in 1696. After secularization it belonged to the Counts of Treuberg until 1927, when the St. Josefskongregation Ursberg took it over. The convent building was converted in 2010 and the hotel opened in 2011. Part of the grounds still houses facilities for people with disabilities, next to an orchard and quiet paths.
